Carnival Town

Looking down every alleyway until the grass outgrows our gravestones
'Cause nothing kills as good as mystery
We'll think of all the Never-Do-Wells as they think of what comes next
And what's the next thing on their chopping block
I guess we'll find out soon
Until then, I turn the static up

White noise is nice noise
When deep breaths don't come as easy as they used to
We're looking for those Carnival Towns
That the old ones remember
And new ones just read about

Taking whatever you can when you're able to take what you can get
'Cause nothing motivates like borrowed time
At the start of today we're already tired of tomorrow
What's the next thing on their chopping block
I guess we'll find out soon
Until then, I turn the static up

White noise is nice noise
When deep breaths don't come as easy as they used to
We're looking for those Carnival Towns
Will we ever find them

'Cause nothing has felt right since that murder of 1963
The angels on the church walls remind me that everything is wrong
I remember things breaking down at the carnival
Since everyone abandoned it in 1968
After the bodies from the accidents went missing
Yeah, I remember things breaking down at the carnival
